<i>B</i>factory via conversion of 1-TeV electron beams into 1-TeV photon beams

We derive formulas which describe the interaction of laser beams with electron beams. Specializing to the case of 1-TeV electron beams from the future generation of electron linear accelerators, we calculate the production rate of backscattered 1-TeV photons, and using these photons, we show that it is possible to organize the photoproduction of beauty particles so as to measure ${10}^{9}$ bb\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{} pairs per year. This should be adequate to study rare decays and CP violation in B meson decay.
